The State Pairs have now come down to the final two sides. Ron Bates and Scott Edmonds beat the Eaton pair Gordon Jones and Neville Woods in a game where Scott Edmonds starred.

Eaton player Neville Woods played well in the game against Ron Bates and Scott Edmonds
--------------Neville Woods

The Reagan father and son combination won their way into the final in dramatic fashion with Nick Reagan producing the bowl of the century to win their way into the final with a win against Anthony Provost and Grame Wishart.

In a good game the Reagan combo had the edge for the most part with Father and son doing big things thru the game. Greg had the call over Wishart for the better part of the game that I saw tho he did have a lot of close bowls. Nick was steady when there was a problem. Anthony Provost is a class player and it seemd that no end was settled until he had finished both last bowls or Nick for that matter.

Anthony Provost coming from behind played extremely well to see the game end in a draw. A toss of the coin and Anthony give Nick the mat to . Graham Wishart was 6 ft thru with his first on a longish end, Greg Reagan was almost on the jack On the second set of bowls we saw Wishart drive and move the jack back and to the side.
Nick Reagan tried to put the jack in the well and missed by a whisker, Anthony Provost didn't miss and the picture shows it was almost certain game for him.
It was a case of going on to play in the final or go home so Nick drew with his final bowl which landed within 2 inches of the ditch.
. Anthony Provost drove but missed and thru to the final for Nick and his dad Greg
